Just got back from Aulani as well. I agree the hospitality really stood out. Staff was above and beyond friendly.

As far as I was able to tell, there are no day passes. For your SO to access the other spa amenities they’ll need to have a service booked. Maybe do a couples massage?

I thought the coffee choices at the Island Market (ABC) were good. So that’s an alternative to Aulani and Starbucks.

Does anyone know if this lounge past security or outside of security?

Maybe this article was written by an AI. The “tips“ aren’t helpful and are borderline nonsense.

If I read the concept art correctly, the Haunted Mansion shop (Carriage House) is going to be built at the current exit. It’s the old splash FastPass distribution, which currently has a somewhat awkwardly placed HM merchandise cart.

I like this idea. Seems like it’s converting the old HM and Splash FastPass areas, which are currently unused/underused. And it’ll hopefully mean that the queue for haunted mansion no longer needs to be a series of ropes through the park area. Good use of space all around. Kind of like Pelican...

Seeing reports that Steakhouse 55 is officially going to become a “flexible lounge space.” Not really sure what that is, but it’s disappointing that it’s not going to be a restaurant. I can’t recall, have they announced whether there is a new restaurant in the DVC tower? Or is Disneyland Hotel...

I agree with the previous poster that you should definitely call. I cannot imagine they would make a guest of the Disneyland Hotel park in the Toy Story lot. For what it’s worth, there is a flat self park lot at the Disneyland Hotel. There are no dedicated oversized/RV spaces, but I have seen...

This is nonsense. Watching the actual interview, he’s using hyperbole as a joke. He’s not talking about the culture of Disneyland. He’s just making an offhand comment about now being able to have a drink. This is nothing. He clearly meant “it changed everything” in a good/silly way. As in...

For DL, I’d take a 5 day trip over a 3 day trip with VIP every time. At WDW, it might be a different story, but at DL, go for the longer time. And if you are really really attempting to minimize line time, you could always get Genie+ one of the days. But with five rope drop opportunities, you...

I’m happy to hear that Steakhouse 55 might be reopening. Just a rumor for now though, as far as I know.

This was a few years back, and I didn’t take the bus myself. But I recall it being right between the HoJo and Marriott.

I’ve stayed at the HoJo by the Marriott. Once we had someone in the party with mobility issues who was trying to conserve every step and did get an ART pass to take the bus to DL. It worked out pretty well. You have to spend the extra time waiting for the correct line (I THINK you can take...

Went to Biergarten in March. Our party of 4 was seated at a table for 8, and we were told we had the whole table to ourselves. To me it appeared that only one party was seated at each table.

I don’t have a guide that fits your description to recommend, but you can tell Disney what you are looking for in a guide. Making requests can’t hurt, but honestly it’s part of the guide’s job to adapt their style to the needs of each individual group, so chances are you won’t go wrong...

Back in the day club level allowed you to pay extra for more FP+ slots. Now club level allows you to pay extra for… transportation to and from the airport.

Was also just there last week. Weather was great. Only on Friday did the temp start to get uncomfortably hot. And I guess there were lots of people there, but I didn’t find it to be “too crowded”. Maybe that’s because my expectations were set for high crowds. Also, we didn’t spend as much time...

Yes, the YC Freestyle machines are still there (BC are not). I didn’t get a mug but was told they are good at any resort for up to 14 days, so you shouldn’t need to buy another one.

I believe the range is now $500-$900 per hour, depending on date.
